Summary: Evil priest man forms a cult and gets his comeuppance.
What do you love about it?: I just really enjoy the visual language and the story it manages to tell in the span of just a few minutes! The art is lovely, and the main priest character is just delightfully corrupt with a tinge of madness. There's manipulation, corruption, and a hint of the supernatural.
What sort of things are you likely to request for it?: I requested world building and any pairing (platonic or otherwise) with the priest! There's a lot of things left open, like his relationship with his followers and the mysterious goddess figure who shows up at the end. Because the video itself features written historical records, I think that's a fun angle to look at it as well. There's also just a whole lot of room for darker concepts/fic elements.
Supplementary: There are some videos that go into the background of the goddess figure, though I think the music video definitely stands on its own without them!
Content warnings: Religious/cult-like stuff throughout, crucifiction/burning at the stake.
